New York, San Francisco Mercedes-Benz wants to improve the voice control of its vehicles and is testing the text robot ChatGPT from Microsoft partner OpenAI. As the car manufacturer announced on Thursday, a corresponding test phase should start this Friday.

Accordingly, Mercedes customers in the USA whose cars are equipped with the MBUX infotainment system can take part: more than 900,000 vehicles. Registration should be possible via app.

Drivers who call up the voice control with the command “Hey Mercedes” should be able to communicate with the car “even more intuitively” thanks to artificial intelligence (AI).
